5.3. Compiling the PCIe* -based Example Design

Prepackaged bitstreams are available for the PCIe* Example Design. If the prepackaged bitstreams are installed, they are installed in demo/bitstreams/.

To build example design bitstreams, you must have a license that permits bitstream generation for the IP, and have the correct version of Quartus® Prime software installed. Use the dla_build_example_design.py utility to create a bitstream.

For more details about this command, the steps it performs, and advanced command options, refer to Build Script and to the FPGA AI Suite Getting Started Guide .
